DataSphere® LinX® Monitoring Systems

The DataSphere® LinX® monitoring system provides real-time reservoir and well integrity monitoring in subsea wells without the need to halt production. LinX monitoring sensors are permanently placed behind well barriers and communicate through the casing wirelessly, monitoring integrity and formation pressure — without making changes to the drilling program, altering the well design or compromising well integrity.

Not big data — the right data

Too often, operators pay a lot for inaccurate data that is gathered periodically and by halting production. The LinX monitoring system enables you to capture accurate data without halting production. Using permanent, behind-casing sensors and an inductive coupler to monitor B-Annulus and the reservoir in real time, the LinX system provides continuous data on well integrity and pressures even during injections.

Real-Time Monitoring

Well and cement integrity

B-Annulus pressure in subsea tension-leg platform wells

Overburden pressure regimes

Caprock pressure and temperature

Injection pressures on the formation

In-situ reservoir pressures

Pore pressure over the life of the well

Barrier integrity between isolated zones

Key Benefits

Accurate well and reservoir data

Customizable to any well design: single- and multi-zone; intelligent; standard; subsea; dry tree

Greater flexibility in vertical tolerance and positioning in the wellbore

Real-time barrier and in-situ reservoir status

Reservoir and integrity monitoring via pressures and temperatures from caprock to cement

No need for periodic integrity tests — reducing cost, risk, and deferred production

Less need to compensate for insecurity with costly drilling programs

Compatibility with Halliburton ROC™ downhole gauges and cable
